ARTS FOR ALL!
​
As an arts education program, serving children in New York City, we know education and arts education plays a vital role in the pursuit of equity and social justice.
Reaching for the Arts was founded because of the unequal access to quality arts programs due to socio-economic status across New York City, severely impacting the communities we serve.
Our mission centers around combating these inequities as a result of generations of institutional oppression and discrimination.
RFA supports our communities and provides after-school arts programming to under-resourced schools. We believe providing access and quality education to all students is the key to creating long-term change.

Why Arts Education?
Reaching for the Arts provides after-school arts education and programs to under-resources schools and communities that do not have adequate arts education programs.
Arts education improves and supports academic achievement, self-confidence, motivation, and nurtures skills needed to help students thrive in the future. Arts education fosters students' passions and provides students with new challenges and opportunities.
